Pretty much the Howto at the Samba site, specifically the Quick start: http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/FastStart.html#id2509193 under the heading "Secure Read-Write File and Print Server" My eventual smb.conf wound up looking like this: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = (obfuscated) server string = Samba Server log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 dns proxy = No ldap ssl = no idmap uid = 16777216-33554431 idmap gid = 16777216-33554431 hosts allow = 192.168.0. [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No A lot of default settings in there. Since this seems to take so long to announce after a restart, there's no guarantee that this is correct. Especially since I've just started testing this thing.
